EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Travel views of Europe, 1900s. Grand Place, Brussels, Belgium. In the centre is the Maison des Brasseurs (House of Brewers)," is a stunning representation of European history and architecture captured by the renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe in the early 20th century. The image transports us back in time, as we observe the bustling activity of the Grand Place, or Grote Markt, in Brussels, Belgium. The photograph showcases a vibrant square filled with people, including children playing on the pavement and women in traditional clothing, all surrounded by intricately designed buildings. The Town Hall and the Maison des Brasseurs, with its gothic architecture and ornate details, dominate the scene. The image also highlights the rich cultural heritage of Europe, as evidenced by the Christian church in the background. Arnold Genthe, an American photographer, captured this moment in history using a nitrate negative, which adds to the image's unique character and timeless quality. The photograph is part of the extensive Genthe Collection held at the Library of Congress in the United States, showcasing the importance of this image as a valuable historical document. The Grand Place, a major tourist attraction in Brussels, is a testament to the city's rich history and European charm. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to appreciate the beauty and diversity of Europe during the 1900s.
